Louis I.atsfee is running a tunnel on the
Leonard, which is situated near the Yellow
jacket. There is an excellent showing on
this claim and there is scarcely doubt that
MIR. Latafee will make a nice little profit.
The country in which the Leonard is situated
is not often visited by mining experts, and is
little known except by the few who are
working it, but some day its merits and ad
vantages will be recognized. There are
strong lodges carrying gold in paying guam
titles, all situated close to wood and water,

on the erection OF works that will reduce the
